Enjoy a dedicated music request from championship-winning steel-pan band EBJ Harmonics – the definitive sound of the summer

Every holiday has a soundtrack. With the annual St. Kitts Music Festival now in its 22nd year and going from strength to strength, the island is sharing the authentic sounds of the Caribbean in its latest initiative, The St. Kitts Shout Out.

An island bathed in the sounds of the summer, St. Kitts has challenged the championship-winning steel-pan band, the EBJ Harmonics, to perform personal dedications and cover versions of favourite songs of British travellers to share across the Atlantic via the official St. Kitts Tourism Facebook page.

The band, fronted by MJ Byron, has already performed hit songs by artists including Ed Sheeran and Jennifer Lopez while giving potential visitors a taste of the island’s stunning scenery and cultural hotspots, such as Timothy Hill, Frigate Bay beach and Brimstone Hill Fortress National Park.

To have a song performed especially for you and your loved ones, just head over to the St. Kitts UK Facebook page and leave a comment under the latest Shout Out video, stating what song you’d like the band to play, whom it’s dedicated to and why. Don’t forget to include #StKittsShoutOut in your comment.
